apollo quad
For the first time, I feel like I have a real studio in a box. Highly recommended.
Now, we just need the octo Apollo. Apollocto.

Pristine
The UA Apollo Quad is an insanely nice interface, as well as a fully functional UAD card. Anyone who is in need of either of those things should definitely consider the Apollo. It's extremely well built, and the sound quality is pristine!

apollo uad multi-unit cascading 88.2khz
Im running two apollo quads, as well as a UAD 4-710, is it possible to run this configuration at 88.2khz? the UAD 4-710 will be running via adar so it is a digital signal. If this is possible could someone post a link to a diagram for the configuration of the units. Thanks so much

UA Apollo sounds great!
After spending some time with the Apollo this past two weeks, I have to say that I just love it... it sounds awesome to me. The stereo field seems open and clear and the low end sounds cohesive and tight. The initial setup is a breeze and in no more than 15 minutes you're basically ready to go: i had no troubles whatsoever.
The Apollo console gives you the freedom to route tracks in a easy and fast way.
I love the opportunity to track with plugins with no latency, which opens up lots of applications in live scenarios, and the chance to actually "print" them into the track in the studio.
I use my Apollo in combination with a SSL X Desk and i think i just found the right setup for producing and mixing my music. And i love it.

apollo the mission !
first I would like to type .thanks you UA for making a great piece . and two for making a great sounding interface... a friend told me about UA and the plugin's and that I should invest... well I picked up the quad, and every day been using it. The AD_DA convertors are great an the software matches up to my Protools 10 and 11 set up Nicely !! I love the software mixer. the next to Zero latency.. the much smaller rack space to add more gear . and the inputs and outs....... any one that's reading this... im not getting paid for typing, I'am telling you my real time thoughts of the everyday use of My APOLLO.. and plugin's ...
Cheers ... O'so Marvelous B.C productions

An incredible interface - legacy series plugins a letdown
This piece replaced my Alesis io14 and is a huge upgrade. The pres are really transparent and responsive - they make even an DI bass or guitar sound lively but not coloured. My cheap apex 460 tube mic sounds great through it. The only let down with the core quad package is the "legacy" series plug-ins. After demoing many of the other plug-ins that were designed for UAD-2 (1176 Classics, LA-2A) they are all MUCH better sounding than any of the legacy versions. I may have to use the custom upgrade package UA offered upon registering, but I wish that I didn't have to shell out another $300-$700 dollars to get the plug-ins I really want to use only a month after purchasing a $2500 piece of gear.
Still an amazing unit.

Experience with Apollo Duo
I live in Germany and work as a voice actor and producer. In my studio I use a FIREFACE UCX and a FIREFACE UCX from RME for 2 different setups. I also have a LA 610 MKII, UA 6176 and Satellite Duo apart of AVALON 737 SP.
Apollo has a great sound. No doubt - but its not better than Fireface UCX or even UFX. For me was almost impossible to listen some difference in all tests.
But after some days of tests I send it back to my supplier. The reason was the software interface. Comparing with RME TotalMix FX it was like to compare an iPhone 5 with a NOKIA from 1992. Apart of it some plugins DOENST work without delay as announced - like "Precision Multiband Plug-In". In this case a Satellite was the best option for me.
Sorry UAD :/

Apollo is amazing.
Apollo is the real deal. Great sounding interface with tons of options.

Apollo Quad is amazing
The Apollo Quad is such a great addition to my studio. The a/d d/a, Apollo console and the UAD processing has taken my mixes to the next level

Apollo Quad
Je suis récemment passé d'un système merveilleux à savoir une studer 900 dans un protools avec convertisseur SSL madi AX à un système beaucoup plus nomade à savoir mon mac et mon apollo quad.
Tout d'abord les points positifs: Les préamps sont absolument excellents et les convertisseurs me semblent également très bons.
En revanche le gros problème reste la latence quand tout d'un coup l'on cherche à travailler avec les merveilleux plugs de la marque en acquisition ou en prémix .
Je n'ai peut être pas encore écumé toutes les ruses pour y faire face mais actuellement
ce détail me gâche largement mon plaisir et c'est bien dommage.
Pour autant je ne peux faire autrement que de marquer un 4/5 pour cette machine car la qualité est au rendez vo

A must have.
This is by far the best interface I have ever had. Very simple to set up and the preamps sound great. The software is very logical and the plug ins work as they should without slowing down my laptop. I highly recommend this interface for anyone who is serious about recording.

The Apollo Has Landed
Apollo Quad
I recently just purchased this unit and i must say i am amazed. It integrated straight into my workflow and just made everything sound better off the bat. I am running on a windows system and my DAW is cubase.(i am making the connection firewire) It is very stable. The UAD plugs are great and the fact that i can monitor no latency from the UA console is marvelous. The UA Apollo is great. clean analog-digital-analog conversion, clean preamps and user friendly. I wish they would have included MIDI but i will let it slide.

Massive Upgrade From The M-Box Mini to the Quad Apollo
Not having much of a technical background when it comes to choosing the most solid up-to-date electronic gear, I knew that that Avid M-Box Mini Interface is a piece garbage. I mean, if you're just getting started with the whole home recording deal, then maybe that's what you need for now (hey, it's a lot cheaper than then the Apollo!). After putting together the Apollo I was impressed. The preamp is so much clearer. I don't care for the monitor volume control though. It's not a smooth transition. Overall, I would recommend this piece of equipment if you are looking for a more "crisp" sound. P.S. they're a pretty penny.

Hardware tops, software, not so much
Love UA hardware. Love UA plug-ins. Performance is a step into all-pro land. No one should think twice about taking the leap.
The Software control application Console is the only weak link. While sessions are running knobs and sliders stop working as the hardware prioritizes audio bandwidth. The graphic interface (a mixer) is a little too busy (evrery detail is stroked full contrast) making the aux feed slider and other functional components difficult to see at a glance. It's great that plug-ins can be used, even recorded, but more than three on the board and FireWire freezes up. Another mystery is a dialog box generated by UA that FireWire bandwidth has been exceeded...even when I'm not doing any audio work and the computer is idle.

Apollo DUO
The sound quality is the best I have ever worked with using an interface.
The Apollo Duo real time gives the sound a most natural sound.
It range is far beyond any other units I have used in our system.
It is truly a great analog processor.

game changer
I have used many audio interfaces and converters.
I think apollo is the game changing interface.
great sound!
I really love monitoring and recording with UAD plugins on UAD console.

Great Interface
Apollo is better than expected. Did a long A/B comparison today against a single-channel $1,200 mic preamp, and although there were subtle differences, the Apollo pre's were really good, and even preferable in some circumstances. Add to that a lot of I/O, low-latency monitoring, and UAD plug-in processing, and this makes for a great interface. Worth every penny.

Nuevo APOLLO, nuevo Estudio
Reemplazar mis equipos de Avid por el nuevo Apollo Quad replantea todo, desde un mejor sonido hasta una mejor administracion de todo gracias a la consola. Tener la posibilidad de ajustar y almacenar diversos "settings" es un lujo!!! Tengo ajustes para grabaciones basica y los ajustes de monitoreo favoritos, incluso puedo divertirme tocando la bateria del estudio a los niveles favoritos de headphones con el "recall".
Y lo mejor.....todo esta sonando increible!!!!
